LOKOMOTIVE IS ON A ROLL

MEN IN BLACK DISMANTLE DYNAMO WITH DISCIPLINE AND GRACE



Baron says:

The game between the Blacks and Greens was one of great anticipation.

Lokomotive won the first game by a single goal.
Dynamo took the second completing destroying their opposition.

The third game between the two started out as a chess match.

A ball off the post, off the crossbar, Keeper saves and desperate Defender actions kept the game nil at half.

After the fifth minute in the second, some sloppy playing by Dynamo gave Lokomotive their first goal.
From that point forward, Dynamo couldn't mount any comeback...and the Blacks punished them for it.

The key to this game proved to be the discipline that Captain Aaron kept on the team.

Where Green seemed almost manic to grab a goal, their opponents contained the play, and then messed up the Defenders for numerous chances.

Kudos need to go to Luis, who managed the net well. He stole two sure goals from Baron, and that gave the team enough confidence to emerge victorious.

Next week, Energie takes on Lokomotive in an explosive game.

BACK TO BASICS

SPARTAN TEAMS PUT OUT SOME FINE PERFORMANCES!!!



Baron says:

I was really looking forward to this match between my Greys and Red F.C.
Energie Spartans F.C. has more depth than this team, and they have some fine defenders and strikers.

But, as with many games, our team was strung out a bit due to missing players.
The lads did well at half, taking a 1 nil lead.

Red F.C. showed their mettle, and scored two goal in the second half.

With time running down, Energie pressured and kept the ball going inside the opponent half.
One of their Defenders handled the ball within the 18, and the awarded Penalty Kick went in.

Tie game. Great job guys!!!

The Blacks were up against Azul F.C., a strong Latino team.
Last time the Blacks lost in an effortless affair...would they take revenge?

By half time, it looked all over.
Azul was ahead, and that's the way it looked to end.

But Lokomotive came back, summoned up their team spirit and played their game.
Controlling the play, they led attack after attack, inching up to tie the game.

With time running down, they went ahead.
But with two minutes left, Azul pulled the Keeper and went after that all important goal.

In the end, though, it was Lokomotive who steamed to victory!

VfB Dynamo was up against one of the League leaders on Sunday.

It was a hard pressed affair, with both sides creating some great chances only to be stymied by even better defending.

At the half it was 1 nil Hammers.

The second half seemed to go better for the Greens with numerous chances.
But it was painfully obvious that without their complete finishing team, nothing was going in the net.

A last minute goal was awarded to the Hammers, and that's how it ended.
